re: #95 Dark_Falcon

I saw it. I saw no hate. I saw a declaration of principles and an exhortation to stand up for them. Christian principles are a force for good in the world and there is nothing wrong with supporting them publicly.

I saw it in the vein that Mr O’ framed in—an opposition to “rampant secularism” in this country, and he cast Christians as a persecuted minority. Balderdash ! When Mr O’ asked whether the Catholic church was right to withhold communion—the recent public decree that Patrick Kennedy, as a pro choice politician , would not be allowed communion—I couldn’t help thinking how just a few decades ago, another politician with the same last name went to great pains to assure the country that public policy would not be dictated by the Pope.

Seems like a step backwards if you ask me.
